In this episode of Hot For Your Health, Dr. Vonda Wright sits down with Lauren Ramsey — former Microsoft leader, tech executive, CEO, athlete, wellness strategist, and now part of the VMD Global Media team — to talk about what it really takes to build a strong, healthy, high-capacity life in midlife and beyond. Lauren shares how she went from 16-year-old college student to two decades in Big Tech to founding and running companies, all while raising a family, training for Ironman, and coaching women in health. Together, they dig into why so many women still struggle to take action on their health (even when they "know what to do"), how to bridge the gap between intention and behavior, and why the single biggest unlock is believing you are worth daily investment. They talk honest midlife realities — perimenopause brain fog, stress, self-sabotage, diet culture, longevity hype — and map out what actually works: fueling your body like it matters, building simple repeatable habits, lifting heavy, sleeping deeply, and choosing a future you're proud of. ••• Make sure to follow Dr. Vonda Wright: Instagram: @drvondawright Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@vondawright Tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@drvondawright LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/vonda-wright-md-ms-2803374 Website: http://www.DrVondaWright.com ••• If you enjoyed this episode, Subscribe to "HOT For Your Health" for more inspiring episodes.
